Vinyl Functionalization of Ti3C2T x MXene Enables Grafting of Sulfonated Polyelectrolytes for High Salt Rejection in Forward Osmosis Desalination

MXene membranes are promising for aqueous separations but are fundamentally limited by swelling-induced loss of selectivity and structural instability. Here, we report, for the first time, vinyl functionalization of Ti3C2Tx MXene nanosheets, which enables subsequent grafting of a...
